Product Description

Milkscreen Alcohol (8 pack) detects the presence of alcohol in breast milk. Simply saturate a small test pad with breast milk and then read the results in 2 minutes. ANY color change on the test pad at 2 minutes indicates that alcohol is present. After nine long months of pregnancy, some moms are interested in having an occasional or celebratory drink but worry about passing alcohol on to baby. Milkscreen provides peace of mind, so moms can breast feed with confidence. Milkscreen is an easy to use at home test to detect the presence of alcohol in breast milk. Milkscreen detects the presence of alcohol at 13.1 mg/dL or greater in breast milk. Some Moms mistakenly think that after just one alcoholic drink they are okay to breastfeed. However, about 2% of the alcohol Mom consumes will enter her bloodstream and breast milk. Because everyone metabolizes alcohol differently, the amount of time it takes for the alcohol to leave your breast milk also varies. Alcohol is not trapped in breast milk, and draining your breasts will not expedite the elimination of the alcohol out of your system. Over time your body will naturally metabolize the alcohol from your breast milk but the only way to know for certain that the alcohol is gone is to test your breast milk. A "feeling" of intoxication or non-intoxication is not an accurate indicator of determining if alcohol is present or not in breast milk.

My husband was home on R&R from Afghanistan and wanted me to have a drink with him. He felt I deserved it since I wasn't pregnant anymore! I felt sooooo nervous because you never really know when the alcohol is gone. This test gave me the relief to feel like a good mommy AND enjoy a well-deserved night out with my hubby <3

The breast milk alcohol testing strips are easy and convenient to use. To get results you squirt a drop of breast milk onto a tab and within minutes you have results. It's really nice as a breast feeding mom to be able to enjoy a few alcoholic drinks on special occasions and know whether its safe to breast feed your baby or not. But the strips only indicate the presence of alcohol in your breast milk. It would be nice to have a scale of how much alcohol was present with a predicted timeline of when it would clear your system. This way you could plan when you should test again without wasting a whole bunch of strips, they are expensive.

These are a waste of money. I used them on three different occasions. The first two times it was hours after I'd had a drink so I assumed the test would be negative. The third time I knew I felt intoxicated and just tested to see what the positive result strip looked like...it never changed! And I had been drinking whiskey all night! I followed the instructions exactly and then retested just to be sure. I even stuck a strip directly into a bottle of whisky to see if it would change...nope, still showed a negative result. Pointless.

I'm not a big drinker, but these are perfect for a night out to dinner and you had a drink. Strips are easy to use and quick. They are a little expensive but they give you a good piece of mind when your feeding your baby after a drink.

After a night of drinking I use the strips to test my breastmilk for alcohol and in two minutes I get fast and clear results! It comes in a small package which makes it convenient for travel especially! Strips are pretty pricey but nothing is ever too expensive for safety!

Follow directions on package! Very easy to use! I have a pack for the occasional blue moon that I get out with the girls or with my husband. They are worth purchasing for peace of mind that your baby is safe!

Product was great only having to wait two minutes for the test to be done and after just having a wedding I had a little to drink and had extra milk for the baby but tested my milk right away. I drank a little too much product was great only having to wait two minutes for the test to be done and after just having a wedding I had a little to drink and had extra milk for the baby but tested my milk right away , but the test should that immediately. Although I do not drink much, there are those days where I want a couple when the baby is not around and will test my milk with this product over and over again! It can be expensive, but I would rather be safe knowing my baby is not getting the alcohol I consumed.

The Milkscreen alcohol test strips are the best thing ever created for breastfeeding moms who need a night to relax with a glass of wine!! The test strips are so easy to use! you can either pomp and dip the test strip into the pumped milk or you can squeeze some breast milk onto the test strip. All it takes is 2 minutes and you get your results. Either shows up brownish black for alcohol that is detected in your breast milk and if there is no alcohol in your breast milk then the test strips stay a tannish color.

**For all mothers who need a glass of wine or an alcoholic beverage after a crazy week of being one on one with their babies, please note that you can have 2 8oz glasses of your choice and that it takes 90 mins for alcohol to be detected in your milk. Once it is past the 90 mins, it takes 6 to 7 hours for your milk to metabolize in your breast and then your milk is alcohol free!!

So all in all, i would highly recommend this product to any breastfeeidng mom! It takes the guess work out of the equation and leaves you knowing if alcohol is in the molk or not!
